The percentage of A occurring is 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

4 sections are there

M A T H

number of spins, n = 20

In one spin, the probability of getting A is 1/4

In 20 spins, the probability of getting A is


(1)/(4) = (x)/(20) \\\\x = 5

Percentage of A occuring =
(5)/(20) X 100\\\\

= 25%
